    My Music Tastes

    Author: Casey | Posted in: Tech

    I stumbled across a very cool little plugin yesterday: Audioscrobbler. This little service will send your music playing history to Audioscrobbler’s servers, so that other people can see what you’re listening to at any given moment. They have plugins for just about every audio player out there, including my music player of choice: iTunes)

    I’ve also found another site that will allow you to put your currently playing track on your blog/website. I am constantly listening to music while at work, so this is a pretty neat little tool for me. I hope everyone enjoys it, and let me know if you sign up so I can see what you’re listening to!!

    Xbox 360 Specs Video

    Author: Casey | Posted in: Tech

    I’m sure most of you have heard about the new Xbox 360 that will be coming out sometime this year (maybe by Thanksgiving?). I stumbled across this video today and it cleared up some of the fuzziness surrounding the Xbox 360′s specs.

    I’m not much of a gamer, but I do like to keep up with the newest technology that’s out there. I’m always interested in the latest news regarding any kind of gadget. For all of you who are gamers out there, which do you think you’ll buy: the PS3 or the Xbox 360? Let me know in the comments…

    Gmail

    Author: Casey | Posted in: Tech, Travel

    Ok, so I got my gmail account now. After my wife saw my gmail account, she just had to have one! So, I got her one too. It’s really great, so easy to use, and I get 1 GB of FREE storage!

    I also figured out how to import all of my old Hotmail messages into it. There’s a cool tool called gExodus that helped me do it. I’m really excited about it!


    Anyways…what have I been up to? Well, not much really… Just work & more work. Oh, except for this past weekend. Me, my wife, and her brother & his girlfriend decided to go to Six Flags Over Texas this past weekend. It was so much fun!! We left on Friday morning at 5 AM, and got there at about 10:30. We got to ride all the rides and the weather was perfect! It was about 85 degrees all day, and the park wasn’t that crowded. We rode the Titan (Another Picture) and it was the best ride ever!! It is 250 feet high, and reaches speeds of up to 85 mph!

    The next day we all went to Grapevine Mills Mall and shopped all day. That was pretty cool, and I got a new pair of shoes for work. After that, we decided to drive back home. All in all, it was a fun, but busy weekend!
